THE SUNDAY TIMES #1 BESTSELLERA Times Best History Book of the Year; A Waterstones Best Book of the Year'Reads like a thriller... I couldn't put Max Hastings's new book down' DAILY MAIL'Hastings is a master of drama, a writer intimately familiar with the mind of the soldier' THE TIMES

Praise for Abyss:

‘Grabs from the get-go… as if this were the very best fiction’ - Daily Mail

‘A brilliant, beautifully constructed and thrilling reassessment of the most perilous moment in history’ - Daily Telegraph

‘Frightening but hopelessly addictive’ - The Times

‘Magisterial… chilling’ - Daily Express

‘Brilliantly told… compelling… Hastings has cleverly woven the story together from all sides describing them in dramatic, almost hour by hour detail… this is a scary book. Hastings sees little evidence that today’s leaders understand each other any better than they did in 1962’ - Sunday Times

‘Deeply researched, incisively intelligent and compulsively readable. Abyss is as tight and smart account as any account and will earn pride of place even on a shelf already packed with books about the crisis’ - TLS

‘Hastings lays bare, with chilling clarity, the ease with which political theatre and bluster could well have escalated into a scenario of mutually assured destruction’ - Observer
